Default Looking at a 92 Convertible

well,

i'm going to look at a 92 convertible 2.3 on sunday...the guy wont tell me anything about it, i just know the top works and it runs and drives. I called, emailed, wont tell me the mileage, what color..?? The guy works at AAMCO, which could be good or bad..He only wants $600 or best offer. What do you guys think???

I going to buy it if it is all he says. Tell him it is sold but if he has left anything out he owes you say 50 dollars for your troubles. Then see if he is still serious. Even if he refuses you can tell by how he acts to the offer if he is hiding anything. Good luck.

I just dont like how its actually at AAMCO. What I'm thinking is someone brought it in because of that front seal leaking, and realized how much it was gonna be and planned on junking it, but this guy said "no, wait., ill buy it" with his intentions being to fix it up, but never got around to it or lost interest...so there it sits.

I dunno, I'm going down with $400 in my hand. I'm not offering more than that.

Hey,

Everytime i see an ad for a Stang and the owner isnt very descriptive, it always ends up been a rust bucket or something else crazy like that after i wasted hours driving.

I was just out last week looking at a 2.3 Hatch. The guy made it sound like it was a project in progress. When i got there, there was rot and rust all over the car.....

I'd try and get more details if i were you....

Good Luck.

Well, when I called he told me this crazy story that he had two cars: the convertible and a Dodge ram, well for some reason he bought a brand new Jaguar and just doesnt need two summer cars anymore.

Well of course I didnt even go and look at it today after I told the guy I'd be there. I dont have a car and no one would give me a ride, even after they said they would. If you want anything done, just do it yourself!
